The snarky reply here might be that we're just following the
documentation of acpi_lid_notifier_register(), acpi_lid_open(), and
friends. ;)

I can add intel-gfx to the other thread if you want, but this will IMO
just add more noise to your list.
The question is whether or not the kernel should provide a fake state
for the _LID acpi call, and until we reach an agreement on how to
handle things, there is no point changing the currently working code
in i915.

It is true that there is an issue in i915 regarding the fact that
intel_lid_notify() doesn't use the provided value but calls
acpi_lid_open(), but this is something that can be solved in
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100923, when the
situation clarifies.

If you are discussing changes impacting i915, please keep intel-gfx list
in the loop.

OK. So let's stop talking in PATCH 4-5.
They are actually cleanups from my point of view.

In fact, I don't see any big conflicts between us.

My point of view is:
There is a gap between (BIOS ensured/Windows expected) acpi control method lid 
device behavior and Linux user space expected acpi control method lid device 
behavior.
Button driver default behavior should be: button.lid_init_state=ignore
If user space programs have special needs, they can fix problems on their own, 
via the following mean:
 echo -n "open" > /sys/modules/button/parameters/lid_init_state
 echo -n "close" > /sys/modules/button/parameters/lid_init_state
Keeping open/close modes is because I don't think there is any bug in button 
driver.
So I need to prepare quirk modes from button driver's point of view and use 
them as a response to related bug reports reported in acpi community.
Your point of view is:
There is a gap between (BIOS ensured/Windows expected) acpi control method lid 
device behavior and Linux user space expected acpi control method lid device 
behavior.
Button driver default behavior should be (not 100% sure if this is your 
opinion): button.lid_init_state=method
If user space programs have special needs, they can fix them on their own, via 
the following mean:
 libinput:name:*Lid Switch*:dmi:*svnMicrosoftCorporation:pnSurface3:*
  LIBINPUT_ATTR_LID_SWITCH_RELIABILITY=write_open
From this point of view, we actually don't need open/close modes.

It seems we just need to determine the following first:
1. Who should be responsible for solving bugs triggered by the conflict between 
bios and linux user space expectations:
   button driver? libinput? Some other user space programs? Users?
2. What should be the default button driver behavior?
   button.lid_init_state=ignore? button.lid_init_state=method?
3. If non button driver quirks are working, button driver quirk modes are 
useless.
   The question is: Should button.lid_init_state=open/close be kept?
4. From button driver's point of view, button.lid_init_state=ignore seems to be 
always correct, so we won't abandon it.
   If we can use libinput to manage platform quirks, then 
button.lid_init_state=method also looks useless.
   The question is: Should button.lid_init_state=method be kept?

I should also let you know my preference:
1. using button.lid_init_state=ignore and button.lid_init_state=method as 
default behavior is ok for me if answer to 1 is not button driver, otherwise 
using button.lid_init_state=method is not ok for me
2. deletion of button.lid_init_state=open/close is ok for me if answer to 1 is 
not button driver, otherwise deletion of button.lid_init_state=open/close is 
not ok for me
3. deletion of button.lid_init_state=method is always ok for me

See the base line from my side is very clear:
If acpi community need to handle such bug reports, button.lid_init_state=method 
cannot be the default behavior.
We are just using a different default behavior than "method" to drive things to 
reach the final root caused solution.

Could you let me know your preference so that we can figure out an agreement 
between us.
Though I don't know if end users will buy it (they may keep on filing 
regression reports in ACPI community).

Can this make the discussion simpler?

So before determining whether we should keep button.lid_init_state=open/close 
or not.
We obviously should stop talking here.
You can copy above questions to PATCH 1-2 discussion and reply in order to stop 
this.
We can revisit PATCH 4-5 when the basic questions are answered. :)

Hi Lv,

I am trying to reduce the number of parallel discussion we have on the
same subject, but there is something here I can't let you have.

But these two modes are wrong in the absolute case:
- a laptop has no reasons for not being powered up with the lid
physically closed (wake on lan?) -> so open is an approximation
already made on good assumption that there is not a high chance of the
users powering/resuming the laptop with the lid closed
- in the "close" case, this setting works for docked laptops, but if
the laptop can be docked, it can also be undocked. And if you boot
with button.lid_init_state=close, undock your laptop, go into suspend,
resume -> the lid state is now "closed" while it should be opened.

So no, these are just workarounds. i915/nouveau expect the acpi/button
state to be reliable, or they should ignore it. But you can't fake
events when you are not absolutely sure of what is happening.

If  the only 2 users of acpi_lid_open() are intel and nouveau, and if
they should rely on the value stored in the input node, not the one
exported by the _LID method (which can be wrong on some platforms),
how about simply changing the implementation of acpi_lid_open() to
fetch the value from the input node directly?

Re: [Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 5/5] ACPI: button: Obselete acpi_lid_open() invocations

Hi,

If my previous reply is not persuasive enough.
Let me do that in a different way.

If acpi_lid_open() returns stored value in input node,
then it actually returns the value we notified to the input layer.
While i915 and nouveau explicitly do not trust that value and invoke 
acpi_lid_open().

For button.lid_init_state=method, PATCH 4/5 is useless as the values are same.

However in my reply of PATCH 2.
I explained the difference of method/close, for the same reason, we can also 
sense the difference of method/open.
The difference then can explain the usefulness of open/close modes.

Given open/close modes are all useful:
button.lid_init_state=open
1. button driver sends open to input layer after boot/resume
2. i915/nouveau uses _LID return value after boot/resume
If _LID return value after boot/resume is "close", they are different.

button.lid_init_state=close
1. button driver sends close to input layer after boot/resume
2. i915/nouveau uses _LID return value after boot/resume
If _LID return value after boot/resume is "open", they are different.

The only way to be consistent to old i915/nouveau behavior is:
button.lid_init_state=open/close
1. button driver sends open/close to input layer after boot/resume
2. button driver sends _LID return value to i915 after boot/resume (PATCH 4)
So that i915 can just use the notified value in this patch (PATCH 5).
For nouveau, no change has been made for now, and as a concequence, 
acpi_lid_open() is still kept but marked as deprecated.

See Documentation/acpi/acpi-lid.txt:
The _LID control method is described to return the "current" lid state.
However the word of "current" has ambiguity, some buggy AML tables return
the lid state upon the last lid notification instead of returning the lid
state upon the last _LID evaluation.

In order to have acpi lid event notifier API compliant to the above mentioned 
both "buggy" and "nonbuggy" implementation.
The ensured lid event model interface should be:
1. Lid event notifier listeners invokes acpi_lid_notifier_register().
2. And in the callback, uses _LID return value.
This is also the only possible way to combine "receiving lid notify" and 
"evaluate _LID" into 1 single atomic operation.

So I trend to remove acpi_lid_open() and enforce the new API.

As a conclusion, PATCH 4-5
1. makes a hidden logic explicit - the lid event listeners always use _LID 
return value. Less hidden logics should leave less chances of bugs.
2. is an implementation for our documented ACPI lid event model.
And the implementation is done in a regression safe way.

Lv

See my reply of PATCH 4.
It seems they trust _LID return value more than what we send to them.

We can actually send faked "open/close" to them when 
button.lid_init_state=open/close is specified.

So these 2 patches [PATCH 4-5/5] are used to do a small cleanup for lid event 
notifier APIs.
I think they are not strictly related to the lid issues we are talking about.

Where's the rest of the series? Please send it all to intel-gfx so our
CI can crunch through it. And I could take a peek too.

This seems relevant:

[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 5/5] ACPI: button: Obselete acpi_lid_open() invocations

[Lv Zheng]

Since notification side has been changed to always notify kernel listeners
using _LID returning value. Now listeners needn't invoke acpi_lid_open(),
it should use a spec suggested control method lid device usage model:
register lid notification and use the notified value instead, which is the
only way to ensure the value is correct for "button.lid_init_state=ignore"
mode or other modes with "button.lid_fake_events=N" specified.

This patch fixes i915 driver to drop acpi_lid_open() user. It's not
possible to change nouveau_connector.c user using a simple way now. So this
patch only marks acpi_lid_open() as deprecated to accelerate this process
by indicating this change to the nouveau developers.
